Sociability. Our goats must live well in community with other goats - does AND bucks.

Vigor. It is the nature of goats to be playful and curious.

Manageability. We use a combination of Livestock Guardian Dogs and llamas for predator control. The goats must be

responsive to the guardians.

Feed conversion. We offer grass hay and browse, and occasionally indulge them with weeds. We feed supplements only to increase fat soluable vitamin uptake in the winter. They have loose mineral, a flax tub (in winter) and baking soda available to self-regulate their supplement needs.

Low maintenance.

We provide opportunities for them to trim their own feet.

Respect fences. We use a combination of welded wire, tensile wire and electric net fences.

Weather tolerant. We offer three sided shelters for a four season climate.
